6 + 2 Point Deductions


Because we had LOTS of players at the ends of their contracts when we got relegated, even more have finished since. Then all the player shad LARGE wage reductions in place. On top of that we have sold Dewsbury Hall for £30m, Barnes and Catagne for £50m, plus the manager and his staff to Chelsea was £10-£20m. So effectively in the championship PSR season we sold nearly £100m worth of talent. The previous PSR season we sold Maddison and Fofana for £110m.
And yet every man and his dog expected you to be “close”? Including most fans and some people at the club. Need to ask what else you wasted that money on then?
 
The frustrating thing is how obvious it was. Before any deductions;



I don't think we'll ever see another point deduction for PSR.
Because the panel sided with Leicester, i think any future charges have the defence if you cant apply the rules fairly to everyone, you can apply them to no one. I think this is what we are seeing today.

I think if someone obviously rinses it and sails over they still have no option than to charge them but I think what we're seeing now is that they've more or less given up fighting battles under this form of PSR and will wave through workarounds like Chelsea's hotel and, it would seem, our interest treatment. I imagine if nothing else the clubs are hammering them on the legal fees they are racking up. I think Leicester was a hammer blow for them and showed they could only fight the easiest of battles because the rules themself are fundamentally flawed.

With respest, all the stuff in the press by the reporters and "experts" was total guess work based on previous premier league accounts and NOT our championship accounts. They had no idea of our finances from last season.

Let alone the wage reductions we released or sold: Evans, Mendy, Bertrand, Tielemans, Maddison, Perez, Soyuncu, Barnes, Amartey, Castagne. Plus Kristiansen, Thomas and Soumare on loan.

John Percy, who has the inside track on us, said back in April / May that we need to sell a player to comply. And once we sold Dewsbury Hall, he said the club was confident of being compliant, he's repeated the same thing times over the last 8 months.
 

…..think this outcome is because of the mess the PL have put themselves in. A few months ago Masters said he didn’t want teams with an ‘asterix’ against their names, that’s because he knows it’s been a huge cock-up.

Crowds chanting how corrupt the league is, banners held aloft has had an impact on their product. I’m sure they want it all to go away.

We can always highlight how we were treated in comparison to others.

I think it's more that some of the super fantastic awsome clubs were sailing too close to the wind, everyone knew that there was no way the legendary 6 were ever going to get done and United and Chelsea were both probably over so the PL have just binned it off, I fully expect City will find some loophole to get away with things too.

United and Chelsea want it all to go away mate, and masters dances to the scab6 tune.

Sure the noise last year won’t be helpful, but I guarantee that if it had just been non-scab teams breaching, there would have been deductions.

That’s why I’m wary of people thinking PSR is done and we can all go nuts - they will come for us again if we break these ridiculous biased corrupt rules, I know it in my gut.
